This beautifully-presented duckling crochet kit contains everything you need to make one mallard duckling:
- 20-page fully-illustrated pattern printed on recycled paper
- organically-farmed British merino wool
- organic cotton yarn for eyes, beak and feet
- 100% natural sheep’s wool for stuffing
- 3.5mm bamboo crochet hook (optional)
- blunt-tipped yarn needle
Everything is smartly presented in a reusable box, making it a great gift for anyone crafty.
The gorgeous yarn included in the kit is wonderfully soft and a delight to crochet with, resulting in a perfectly fluffy duckling.
The pattern is worked with a 3.5mm (US size E-4) crochet hook (or the size needed to make a compact crochet fabric with the given yarn). I offer a lovely bamboo crochet hook by Pony if you don’t have one or are giving the kit as a gift.
The finished duckling is approximately 10cm (4inches) long.
The kit contents and packaging aims to be as eco-friendly as I can possibly make it:
- box – 70% recycled, reusable and recyclable.
- ball bands, box labels – 100% recycled paper, recyclable.
- pattern – 100% recycled paper, recyclable.
- tissue – 100% recycled, recyclable.
- business cards, tags, etc – handmade from greeting cards, cereal packets, etc, recyclable.
The wool stuffing is a natural product and comes in a variety of sheepy colours. It is scoured, clean and carded, but may include the odd bit of straw or leaf.
🟨 This kit is best suited to a confident or intermediate crocheter although many beginners have successfully completed it. Please see my other listings for crochet kits and patterns more suitable for beginners.

I’ve just finished my duckling in time for Easter. It’s lovely.

Danielle Mantilla –
This is such a wonderful kit! The little duckling is absolutely precious, and the pattern is well written and clear, even for a relatively new crocheter. The kit includes everything you need, and the materials are substantially better than any other kit I’ve used. The yarn is so wonderfully soft, and it’s really lovely knowing everything is sustainably sourced. I will definitely be purchasing more from Little Conkers in the future
